Well of course. That's why I put this in a white room.

(Also, just because I should choose something doesn't mean I'm actually rational enough to choose it.)

Assuming I am perfectly rational (*cough* *cough*) in the real world, the decision I'm actually making is "some fraction of myself living" versus "small probability of someone else dying."
